Pregnant Nurse in need of advice ASAP

Hello all nurses,

I started working as a Resident care coordinator over a month ago. Really love my job and I am already attached to the managment team and the staff there. My biggest issue right now is that I am pregnant 6months. Nobody knew about it when I got hired. Now I started to show and nobody ever asked too. I feel like telling my boss, but I just dont know how to proceed. Need help how to start the conversation. Dont want to let them down, especialy when I have to take my maternity leave in mid- april. Any advice to tell my team will be helpful!!

I have no children but I think it would be best if you approached them keeping a positive attittude... Maybe say something like I have a good news that I would like to share with you.. I am expecting a baby in April and I'm very excited... Maybe something like that.. It's a very excited time so be positive and don't let anyone make you feel bad about it.

i think it's better to tell them you're pregnant than to let them guess that you have developed ascites from some awful liver condition and didn't want to share. :eek:

of course tell them, and be glad about it. besides, they'll throw you a great shower! :balloons::bby::balloons:
